                  Best bike in this segment..
                  Bike is very smooth in city as well as highways. It has very comfortable seat and posturing with a good mileage and smooth and refined engine. Bike is overall good by looks and performance in the segment of 160cc. I ride the bike 400km in once and it is very smooth and no vibration in handle and refined engine with soothing performance. I only stop bike for half an hour after crossing 250kms and bike is overall perfect for far journey by bike. I would like to recommend this bike to office employees who want a stable bike also mileage, performance, and good engine with a genuine budget and for family bike, it is good. This bike has it own craze in youth who want sporty bike in low budget as it is a fast commuter bike.

                  Overall I am totally satisfied by this bike
                  This is the best bike according to my experience as I am a student so I wish a bike by which cost me less fuel and less maintenance also other than this bike fix my requirement and also this bike is in my budget. Ride is very comfortable and as 160 cc bike in delivers the performance us expected. Sometimes it delivers more performance then you expect like the highway experience and the city ride are very comfortable. Yes, I will recommend this bike to the boys of my age who wants the bike in this budget like in this budget. This bike is a perfect bike to go for and I would specially recommend to the boys who go to their colleges.

                  Trend setter and OG
                  Actually i'm a Honda lover looking for a bike under 1.5 lakhs budget with sports look and good mileage, so i thought this bike would be great option compared to other bikes and it has some advance features like large screen and phone charger and gear indicators. I bought this bike this year february and had a awesome experience went for a moon soon ride of 240 km up and down and planning for many more rides in upcoming months you can ride this bike with pillion upto 250 km in a day if there is proper weather conditions. If your are looking for best bike under 150000 with good mileage with low maintenance cost and engine reliability smooth engine with less noise and useful for city traffic and shorter rides, i can definitely recommend this bike.

                  Honda SP 160 – Honest Review after 27000 kms
                  Well i wanted a bike for commuting which offer a reliable engine with little sporty looks and good mileage, which can offer a smooth suspensions on highways and city. The bike offers a good value of the price in segment Travelled around 27000 km in 2 .5 years the suspension seems to be good until now but the bike surely feels under power for the 160 segment, handling is good. Even as a commuter bike it still performed very well on off-road and gave a smooth ride across my long tours with pillion. But as I got the first slot of bike it seems after some time some parts of bike have been changed and a throttle seems little on harder side . So overall being commuter bike it performs fantansic but just being under power for sure If ur purpose is just to go and fro from office it's an wonderful bike , but as 160 cc is having multiple options, if ur looking for more power u must avoid it , and if ur looking for reliable engine with low cost maintenance surely go for it

                  Bike comfort is good .
                  160 unicorn reliable same engine with fuel pump upgrade.. I don't need to look another bike I have drove 85k my last bike unicorn 160... Now I upgraded to sp160.. it's a powerful then previous model looks are good... I think distance between handle and rider is a little far for this segment... when I'm starting mostly taking while to get ready after a break. Last speedo meter has been updated.. i like the bike.. mileage is cool Engine it's a good, comfort is good.. Head light is v poor i suggest honda should give 160 a halogen or powerful headlight it's a request... I love riding this bike both on highway and city as well...
